Hi,

I have just updated previously announced
and uploaded to
 http://people.freenet.de/AiTI-IT/Python/Console.py
version
of Console.py because I was not satisfied with
it (it didn't support arbitrary ANSI escape
sequences for setting text colors ...)

Now the Console() class supports ANSI escape
sequences of the form ESC[#m and ESC[#,#m ,
so it is possible to set any colors for text and
background  via escape sequences.

Resetting the colors with ESC[0m will set
them back to initial(default) ones.

Now it is also possible to send a _sequence_
of  ANSI escape sequences to Console.write().
e.g.
     '\x1B[31m'
     '\x1B[1m'
will cause later submitted text to be light red.

Running Console.py creates coloured
test output which can be checked for
integrity.

Any feedback is welcome.

Claudio
